Conquer Education!

I have my Bachelors Degree in Professional Writing with a minor in Creative Writing. In other words, I've suffered through hundreds of grueling English assignments. I know the pain, and I know how to get you through it. I've worked for magazines, taken teaching courses, written many stories, worked as a copy writer, and I do volunteer teaching at a church every Sunday.
Interactive, practical, and fun!

My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : As a novelist (soon to publish my first book), I encourage creativity with a solid background in grammar and composition.

Previous art experience includes a completion of 2D Design, 3D Design, and Basic Drawing I and II all at college level with a strong demonstrative understanding of basic concepts and techniques, including line, texture, form, depth, composition, color (including local, optical, monochromatic, analogous, triadic and tetradic), lighting (directional/atmospheric), shading, blending, gesture drawing, blocking, expressive mark, etc. Also completed History of Art and Architecture I and II at college level. My most commonly used mediums include pencils, graphite, and charcoal (vine and compressed). I am also quite familiar with conte, ink wash, colored pencils, oil pastels and chalk pastels.

My comments on tutoring Creative Writing : I have a minor in English and used to help my friends with their essays.

I always adjust my teaching styles to the child I am working with.
I have taught for seven years in various levels of special Ed. I have also worked in 5th grade for two years and two years in kindergarten.I have wanted to work as a teacher since I was young playing school with my brothers. I want to help shape the minds of our future leaders. I believe that I am the best teacher around because I think about the child's needs first before my opinion on what should be taught.

Creative Writing is one of my top subjects!

Prefer one on one depending on subject.
I am a retired and disabled veteran from the USMC. Interested in a variety of subjects and love to learn on a daily basis as well as teach others the same. I am a believer that regardless of one's age, a person can learn from both male and female and well as from older and younger generations. Having participated in a variety of business careers, I have acquired so much knowledge that I would love to pass it on. Some of those careers are finance, retail, law enforcement, sales both domestic and international, human resources, data base administration, commercial food industry (both acidified and non-acidified) and many more.

Excited and ready to help you learn and improve!

My approach to teaching will be using real life problems. I believe that if you can understand the problem in a real life situations then you can apply it. Depending on the age I will make sure and teach on that level. I will plan lessons before meeting, so I can have the best understand of the subject. It is my goal to teach and see others learn.
I have worked with children from pre-k through 6th grade. I am a full time student at UTSA, so I believe these challenging classes will help me be able to help you get a clear understanding. I have tutored many students when I was in high school. I have also taught young children for the past four years.

UT-SAN ANTONIO STUDENT WITH DIVERSE SKILL SET

I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

My teaching credentials are in English and education. However... At the middle school level and high school level, I have taught/tutored English composition, geography, history, social studies, government, economics, and computer applications. At the college and adult level, I have taught/tutored English composition, oral communications (public speaking and debate), business and business administration, resume writing, advanced computer applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and the Open Office Suite). Having been CEO of a corporation in the public arena, do not expect me to be your normal indoctrinated politically correct public school teacher or college professor. Judge me by the results.
Whether it is in front of a class of 40 or one-on-one, I have been endowed not only with the talent to teach, but also with the God-given ability to motivate. Mo ... read more

My missionary experiences informed me of one idea: people are important and they have to be considered person-by-person. Those experiences have led me to take a teaching philosophy and teaching practice that is person-centric. I work to understand the rhetorics, theories, practices, and experiences that inform each student and the classroom as a whole. In practice, this manifests in extensive talking and co-writing (on daily assignments) to assess where exactly these students are at and how I can help them. I believe that each student, each individual, has the desire and capacity to learn, so I am constantly working to demystify composition so they can truly see how language can inform them and make their lives better.
Applicable to this job, I remember my high school years and the processes I had during my English and Composition assignments. I completed an English Bachelor’s degr ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a reputation for making often difficult and recondite literature accessible and appealing, while candidly admitting its rigors. My personal educational philosophy holds that one major obstacle to students' intellectual maturation is their attitude toward difficulty, and I do my best to try and convince them that we ought to welcome such difficulty and that, in doing so, we open ourselves up to the possibility of rapid and dramatic advancement in academic work.
I began teaching as an Instructor and Dean's Fellow in Rhetoric and Composition and in English literature courses while a graduate student at the University of Iowa, consistently earning student praise in end-of-course evaluations. I bring the depth and breadth of full baccalaureate majors in Greek, Latin and British literature to my teaching and research, and am adept at assisting students who have not benefited from ... read more

More About This Tutor...

In my experience as a tutor, I have acquired the highly important skill of adaptability. Certainly, particular techniques and strategies such as asking provocative questions are helpful with any student of any age. More importantly, though, I have learned that the best tutors are those who can shape each session to the tutee's individual needs and personality. This is most easily accomplished in developing a flexible approach constituted by a blend of directive and non-directive tactics. With this approach, my goal is always to aid the tutee in feeling comfortable and confident in developing new ways of thinking about his or her work, and, from there, helping him or her along the journey to success.
In 2008, as an upper-level English major, I accepted a position with Schreiner University wherein I hoped to use my education in the concentration of composition. For the rest of my co ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a professional teacher, I see my role as a facilitating educator, supporting adult students in what they need and want to know and learn. It is the teacher's responsibility to serve the education needs of the student in a communicative, patient and enjoyable manner. I believe learning new skills and absorbing new knowledge, in themselves, are two of the greatest joys of life. Essentially, learning is a pleasure. As with all adult education, the actual responsibility for learning is the student's; the teacher creates purposeful lessons, guides, corrects, assesses and, certainly, supports and praises all efforts. Also critical to the success of the student-teacher relationship is mutual trust and respect.
I was graduated from the St Louis 4-year Liberal Arts high school, St Joseph's Academy, after which I spent many years in Australia. All my tertiary and teacher's credentials are ... read more
